520    Lincoln produced many heroes during WW1 including, Wing 
       Commander Fiennes who was the Commanding Officer of 38 
       Squadron from 1916 to 1917 flying FE2b aircraft (known as 
       the 'Fees') on patrol against raiding German Zeppelins 
       over Lincolnshire and the surrounding counties. Also, a 
       winged version of the Lincoln Imp adorned many of the 
       First World War aircraft including the famous Sopwith 
       Camel, manufactured extensively by Lincoln firms Clayton 
       and Shuttleworth, Robeys and Ruston Proctor.This book also
       looks at how the experience of war impacted on the City, 
       from the initial enthusiasm for sorting out the German 
       Kaiser in time for Christmas 1914, to the gradual 
       realization of the enormity of human sacrifice the 
       families of Lincoln were committed to as the war stretched
       out over the next four years. The Great War affected 
       everyone. At home there were wounded soldiers in military 
       hospitals, refugees from Belgium and later on German 
       prisoners of war. There were food and fuel shortages and 
       disruption to schooling. The role of women changed 
       dramatically and they undertook a variety of work 
       undreamed of in peacetime. Extracts from contemporary 
       letters reveal their heroism and give insights into what 
       it was like under battle conditions, particularly from 
       those of the Lincolnshire Yeomanry. [Elib]
